Hookah and Hookah Accessories
One of the oldest traditions of the Middle East is the art of hookah smoking. The hookah, has long inspired great discussions of politics, religion, and the daily happenings.
The popularity of the hookah has sky-rocketed in recent years, mainly due to the social nature of hookah smoking. Here in the United States, where everything has become so fast paced that people rarely have time to socialize with family or friends, it certainly contributes to the smoker's integration in his or her social environment in a great way.
The shisha tobacco used in a hookah is a special blend of fresh, dark leaves, fruit pulp, honey or molasses, and glycerine. The shisha is available in a wide variety of flavors including double apple, strawberry, melon, pineapple, vanilla, pistachio, and rose. This blend contains only 0.5% nicotine and no tar.
With a vast collection of flavors to choose from and many other variables to manipulate, hookah smoking is truly an art. Many seasoned smokers enjoy adding ice, fruit juice, milk or wine to water in the glass vase to change the taste, texture, or effect of the smoke.
